Well there were some restrictions that had to be put up after the Bhopal gas tragedy we had so many years ago. Thousands died and thousands of kids were affected for generations after that. Here we're talking about nuclear energy. See what happened in Fukushima. At least Japanese administration is proactive and dedicated. With the slime that rules our country, it would be a true disaster (heavens forbid). Liability clause like the present amended one was needed.
you don't try to correct a wrong from the past by going overboard in the present. The liability clause was going overboard and the mere fact that such clauses never exist between private companies in any other country in the world is proof positive. Fukishima was not the suppliers fault , it was the fault of body running the reactors.
If I ( company)sell you a brand new gun and you don't take care of it, clean it etc and it backfires on you 5 years later. You expect me to pay your hospital bills ?
Look at what happened with BOFORS scandal... India went overboard in over correcting it and 25 years plus down the line, who is suffering because of it?
